- I like to sprout green gram in the house. You can always buy in stores like Whole Foods or even Trader Joes.rnTo Sprout at home- Soak green gram in water overnight or for about 12 hours. Drain the water in a colander. Cover the colander completely with a plate or loosely place a muslin cloth under the sprouted gram and cover it. Keep it in a warm place for about a couple of days.
- Boil the Sprouted Gram along with salt. Alternately, you can steam them.
- Strain the water and keep them aside.
- In a bowl, toss Onion, tomato, carrot, corn, ginger and boiled gram/moong.
- To this add, coconut and roasted peanuts
- Combine Lemon juice, Olive Oil, Salt and Black Pepper. Beat it with a fork to blend them well.
- Drizzle on top of the Sprouted Gram mixture and give it a quick toss.
- Garnish with chopped coriander. I like to let it sit for about half hour for the flavors to blend in.
